1). Dash light stays on constantly and reads SERVICE AIR BAG. This was checked out at an auto repair shop. If air bag doesn't respond, it could be fatal. 2). Check engine light is always on. Was checked out at an auto repair shop and repaired on 10/19/2021. 3). Right engine exhaust manifold is cracked and leaking exhaust. Was checked out at a muffler repair shop. In time I'm afraid fumes my leak into the truck cab. 4). A brake line ruptured and was repaired on 09/02/2020.

All exhaust manifold bolts are defective causing them to break, when they do the exhaust manifold separates from the cylinder head in turn directing all emissions from the engine into the air, and cabin of the vehicle. This could cause a fire if not corrected. One spark would set the vehicle on fire.
